Abstract (Swedish)
Perovskites have proven to have very promising properties applicable in future higher efficient technological devices such as light emitters and solar cells. In further development of perovskite solar cell devices there are however serious material drawbacks such as instability and toxicity, causing the perovskite research community to question if and how these obstacles can be overcome.

In this work, the structure dependent photoluminescent (PL) properties of perovskites have been investigated through correlation of fluorescence microscopy and electron microscopy. We encountered structural differences in degradation of bulk samples along with variations of PL intensity and PL lifetime between different structures. Structural... (More)

We encountered structural differences in degradation of bulk samples along with variations of PL intensity and PL lifetime between different structures. Structural inhomogeneity was proven to have a big impact on non-radiative decay of perovskite structures with sizes of of a few mikrons. (Less)
